Hi,

Welcome to YoWindow.

The METAR station your location Nabatîyé et Tahta is using is LLIB at the moment.
As far as I can see this is to unreliable. By that I mean that the updates most of the time take to long to be reliable.
Unfortunately Lebanon has very few METAR's that can be used.
The closest one I could find and which seems reliable is Beirut.

Could you please go to Location/Properties and change the METAR code from LLIB to OLBA (Beirut).
Press OK to confirm.
This can only be done in the desktop application.
In the Widget you can see if Beirut is usable for the weather in your place.

If so, then please let us know. Then we can change the ICAO (METAR) code definitely in the database to Beirut, so that it will be usable for you in the Widget when you choose Nabatîyé et Tahta.

I moved this post to questions because it is not a bug of Yowindow.

thank you sir for your fast reply

actually yes beirut is ok and reliable (beirut is 70 km away from Nabatîyé et Tahta)

also there is a location that i am using now it is called Habboûch and it is more reliable than Nabatiye el tahta (habbouche is 2 km away from nabatiye)

so if it is possible to change the METAR station of Nabatiye el tahta in the widget to the METAR station that is more reliable either Beirut or Habboûch
whatever you find convinience

and thank you

Hi,

Habboûch is using Beirut as well.

I'll ask the developer of this program to change it for you:

Hi Pasha,

Could you please change the METAR of 278913; Nabatîyé et Tahta/Lebanon from LLIB to OLBA?

Thank you in advance.
Fred

I have removed LLIB from YoWindow.
Hope now the weather is updated reliably for your place.
From OLBA.
